Verse 1

풀린 신발 끈은 꽉 매야 해

pul-rin sin-bal kkeun-eun kkwak mae-ya hae

혹시나 달리다가 밟아 넘어질 지 몰라

hok-si-na dal-ri-da-ga bal-a neom-eo-jil ji mol-ra

억지울음을 머금은 훈장뿐인 날 봐

흉진 노력은 물거품이 되어버렸네

hyung-jin no-ryeok-eun mul-geo-pum-i doe-eo-beo-ryeoss-ne

나는 흘린 눈물을 모담아

na-neun heul-rin nun-mul-eul mo-dam-a

나의 작아진 아집을 띄우네

na-ui jak-a-jin a-jip-eul ttui-u-ne

저기 요단강에 휩쓸리지 않게

Chorus

도망치다 담을 넘어가니

do-mang-chi-da dam-eul neom-eo-ga-ni

날선 절벽이 끝도 없이 나를 안아주네

nal-seon jeol-byeok-i kkeut-do eop-i na-reul an-a-ju-ne

하필 걸터앉은 곳은 가시덤불이야

ha-pil geol-teo-an-eun gos-eun ga-si-deom-bul-i-ya

피가 철철 나도 아무도 봐주질 않네

pi-ga cheol-cheol na-do a-mu-do bwa-ju-jil an-ne

나는 흘린 눈물을 모담아

Verse 3

Before I die, die, die, die

I'm dying, go just rob the jail

It's okay, tell me lie, lie, lie, lie

Maybe we can just shut down

All of the doors we found

And now we doo bie doo bie

Doo bie doo bie dance on the floor

Verse 4

Yeah, maybe shut down

All of the life we made

밀물 따라 흘러오다 보니

난 어제보다 늙어버린 절반 오십이네

nan eo-je-bo-da neul-eo-beo-rin jeol-ban o-sip-i-ne

등 떠밀려 감흥 없는 여기 내 꼴을 봐

deung tteo-mil-ryeo gam-heung eop-neun yeo-gi nae kkol-eul bwa

이젠 나도 물이 다 빠져 지쳐버렸네

i-jen na-do mul-i da ppa-jyeo ji-chyeo-beo-ryeoss-ne

Verse 5

나는 흘린 눈물을 모담아
